| 总结: | This study aims to investigate the optimal design of Warren Truss based on a fixed number of members with different lengths, and the effect of bolting and welding on the truss. The methodology employed in this study includes both manual calculation and the utilization of the SAP 2000 software. A flowchart was developed to guide the design process, and the internal reactions and structural checking of the truss were performed in accordance with Eurocode 3: Design of Steel Structures – Part 1-1: General Rules and Rules for Buildings. The results of the study indicate that there is a significant impact on structural efficiency when the connection type and member length of the Warren Truss are varied. The use of bolting and welding results in the same structural efficiency compared to welding and increasing the member length however results in a lower structural efficiency. These findings have important implications for the design and construction of Warren Truss structures and may inform future research in the field. Overall, the study provides a comprehensive analysis of the Warren Truss design and serves as a valuable resource for engineers and practitioners in the field of structural design. |
